    That drone footage at night with all of those lights on looks absolutely insane!

      So, they made a video where they buy a Drone ... it was only ½ year ago, so I think they still use it.
      Here's the video :

    I installed a set of Hot Head headliners in my Jeep and no more sizzling hot roof! These things are the greatest. One of the best upgrades I've put on my Jeep.
    All Jeeps need a set of these. They even have them for soft tops.

    5th generation born and raised Arizona. Desert Rat. Today's new lighting systems are unreal! Fantastic. Ain't nothing like desert running at night - too darn Hades Hot to run during the day! Full Moon hikes, horse rides, canoe trips are a blast. no lights... This has been a good series. Nice to see some fun shots, hard escapade rock crawling to visiting local small towns and ghost towns. Pack it In, Pack it Out! stay safe all.

    Would also recommend venting your rotopax fuel canisters every morning before driving. Unless you have the venting nozzle it will build a lot of pressure inside.

    I envy you guys so much... i use to think ball players had the best life because they was payed to do what they enjoy so much.. but you guys have the best life ever.. you get to wheel all over the USA with friends while making new friends, you come and go as you please and get to sit back and enjoy good times around camp fires and have a beer. I just can't get enough of your videos... i could just put them on repeat and watch all day long. You truly are a daily asset to me. Much love to you two.... and keep them coming.

    Also, I seem to remember that someone (me) once told Kevin and & Brittany to get their hands on an infrared camera and see how the BesTop stood up to temperatures.
    "Sure", they said! And then they never did it ! ... yeah, I'm looking at you Kevin !! 😂

    Hardtop insulation is wonderful. I'm 6'4 so i can feel the heat radiating off the hardtop in AZ. Wheeling at night is awesome. I have done the back way to CK twice at night, which was great. Cool weather and no traffic. Congrats on your trip and not dying. Welcome back to civilization.

    That trail must not have been much of anything... your windshield didn't crack! Congratulations you two for surviving your first overland experience! Out in the middle of nowhere all alone had to be nerve racking at times. Now you need to get that Alaska trip going again! It's been said multiple times already, but I'm going to add another compliment to the night time drone footage. It looked amazing! I seem to remember you talking about the drone some when you bought it, but like others, it would be interesting to see a review of how you operate it. Great to see your adventures! Thanks for sharing! Be safe! PS... when you put the new tires on... white letters out... because white letters matter...

    • @BluegrassMike
      @BluegrassMike 4 роки тому +1

      It has a follow feature so that when you're doing that it automatically follows the remote or whatever. As far as how high or low to go while doing that and stuff I have no idea. There is a video when they bought it you can get the model n stuff and research that.

  • @brycepenrod

    You want to see Rattlesnakes take Hwy 3 between Harlowton MT and Lavina MT. That road used to be a bad place to stop and check your load on a big truck. Always ran them over because they were playing chicken rules and crossing the road. Went north out of Childress TX on Hwy 83 and saw a migration of scorpions moving west. Looked like heat wave but it was moving one way, then we got closer and the ground was covered with them moving one direction. Didn't sound to good when we had to move on...

  • @RussellJDodge
    @RussellJDodge 4 роки тому

    At the power company I work for we place those towers about 4-5 per mile depending on terrain/load/etc. So you're for sure throwing light well over 2,000 ft. Almost half a mile!

    When using RotoPax in the desert, be sure to loosen the cap daily to vent the gas fumes. We were told about this step after one of ours burst a seam when driving through the Utah desert in the summer. RotoPax still replaced the tank at no cost.

All the knowledge you've gathered on building StepChild, all the experimentation has really paid off. 800 miles and reliable, comfortable and apparently fast too! I'd love to see what she weighs now..FosterChild I mean...! LiteBriteNationBumperToBumper!

    I noticed there were some blind spots on the front left and right and you may have too much light straight ahead. Is there a way to shine light there (just left and right) in case you want to make a steep turn and want to see where you're going at night? Just a thought. Awesome trip. Great to see how everything is coming along. Keep up the good work and thanks.

    Thermal capacity. Put a block of steel and a block of styrafoam in an oven and heat to 150 degrees. When they have reached temperature, you can hold the styrafoam but not the steel. The steel has a lot of energy stored and will heat up you hand while the stryafoam has little and quickly cools down to your hand temperature.

    I liked the side view better wIth the mirrors up/out. I left mine like that a lot unless I knew I wasn't going to be towing anytime soon. Better to leave them out then have to adjust the mirror angles each time. I do like the F450 mirrors I now have better.

    Guys! I’ve been away for a couple months ( trying to catch up now). Love that rig!!! Really hope you have to send it to me up here in 🇨🇦 haha ! There’s a couple really good Jeep clubs around me (Alberta) and I’m sure I’d be warmly accepted showing up with this wicked rig. Great video as always. Nice work on completing the trail. 👌
    Been subscribed for about a year now. Ever since I thought I’d trade my pick up for a Gladiator. Still In my truck but I know my next vehicle will be a Gladiator. A lot of that decision came from watching you guys. Now Idk if I’d ever get it to where your build is but I know for sure now what the things I need are to get me in the mountains deeper than I’ve ever camped/hunted before. Keep it up you two! 🍻
    P.s.. nice ghost trailer🤦‍♂️😂

    I traded my hard top for a soft top. Mainly before it stuck taking the hardtop off by myself. But I've noticed that the inside Temps are very nice in summer and winter no more death when I get in. Yah its a little noisier but its equivalent to cracking your window.

Has anyone else done anything like this?

    The air that flows past the soft top cools it because it is too thin to retain the heat. The hard top is much harder for wind to cool down.
